BYOND Build Number:
Operating System:Windows
Video/Graphics Card:
Game Hub/Link:
Internet Connection Type:Wireless
Firewalls/Routers:Yes

Problem Description:Whenever I try to play the games I get a popup that says.

Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (byond) isn't associated with any program.

Steps to Reproduce Problem:Click join on the games and it does that every time.

Hm, maybe...

1) try IE, or Chrome (Internet Explorer, and Google Chrome, respectively)
2) associate byond:// links with the Dream Seeker program
3) just use the pager instead of website.

Okay, i would try to get chrome to work, because it is faster, and in most cases, better than firefox imho... reply with your results of the others though XD

Greetings Shurty.

This is a known issue that sometimes happens if a browser is open during install. Try downloading the latest version of BYOND, restarting the machine, then installing BYOND before running any other applications.

Thanks Much.

Although that method is easier, you can just add the association yourself in the settings under tools > options > applications(for Firefox). I've never done it personally, but I know you can do it that way.
